Puppet Master: Alyssa

Character Name: Brinn

Character Age: 12

Gender: Male

Rank: Commoner

Hair: Brinn's hair is cropped to chin length and is more dirt than anything else. If it was clean, it might be blonde or red, but it hasn't been so since early childhood, so the color is really a mystery. The edges are ragged and uneven. It looks as though he cut it with a knife-- which, come to think of it, he did.

Eyes: Brinn's eyes are large, dark, and almond shaped.

Build: Brinn is tall for his age and gangly, with long loose limbs that make him look clumsy and awkward. That impression is entirely misleading, as he is in complete control of his body at all times. He is overly thin from living on the streets, but stronger than he looks.

Face: Brinn's cheeks are soft, his nose sharp and thin, his eyes almond-shaped and his chin stubborn. He is a real mutt of heritages, and it shows in his face, which is more odd-looking than anything else. His skin is golden brown, and constantly smeared with dirt.

Dress: Brinn owns one set of clothes, which is too small, too worn, and too dirty. His breeches are brown and tattered, ending a good six inches above his ankles. The wraparound jacket was red once and used to be well made. In cold weather it is worn closed, in warm weather open over a bare chest. There are several small, thin knives hidden on his person.

Personality:Brinn is coarse on purpose, oddly resourceful, doggedly stubborn, and completely loyal to his gang mates, although everyone else can go hang themselves for all he cares. Work your way into his affections and he will take care of you until death takes you both or he has to fend for himself. He has an impressive vocabulary of curses and isn't afraid to fight.

Talents:He is an excellent knife fighter and fairly good fist fighter. As a pickpocket and thief, he has steady hands and can blend easily into a crowd. Due to a misguided adventure in a horse fair, he can ride a horse better than most street rats, although he sits in the saddle like a sack of potatoes.

History:Brinn is a street rat and has been since he was eight. His mother was a prostitute who bitterly resented Brinn for coming into the world; however, she wouldn't abandon him until he could fend for himself. At nine, he joined one of the city's street gangs and proceeded to learn to pick pockets and steal.
